Locating A Specific Part Of A String?
Jun 9, 2011
I am trying to make a program which outputs an Invoice Number, which consists of the first 3 letters of a person's first name and the last 3 digits of their zip code. The user enter their first and last name, then enters their city, state, and zip such as:
Name: Billy Jones
City, State, Zip: Chicago, Illinois 42349
Therefore, the invoice would look like:
Invoice: Bil349
I can get the first 3 letters of the first name fine using the substring function, but I have been stumped on how to get past all of the text to get the last 3 digits of the zip code entered.

I am loading a KJV.rtf file at program startup into RichTextBoxDisplay. When I want to select, lets say, Matthew Chapter 1, I want the program to take me to Matthew Chapter 1. I know I could just load a seperate file into the rtbDisplay, but do you know how many chapters and books are in the Bible..

I get this error when I try to connect to my database. I used the same string provided in the database explorer "Connection String"
I do not have a password on the database.
This is a local database if that makes a difference

Well I've been looking around on Google and experimenting with code but nothing seems to work. The only things I can find are hundreds and hundreds of lines long - there surely must be an easier way?

Let's say I have a PictureBox with an image of a house, for example, and I want to know if the user clicked on the roof, the door, the window, or the walls.
Is there some way to, maybe, set up an If statement so that it checks what the coordinates of the mouse click was and compares it to a set of pre-determined graphed points to decide what object was clicked?[code]....

I want to be able to read ONLY the link from the file.. In the first file above it would be after the "File1=" text in the file.. And in the other file it should be whats written after the "<ref href="" part..
And as you see in the second file there are three links, so to start with it should only read the first line, maybe later i could make a selection window popup or something..
